See London with a lovely bloke - Rich is a tour guide who really knows his stuff. He’ll show you the best spots to take pictures no one else knows about and will take your picture in front of the most important landmarks. He’s super friendly, very knowledgeable, and will give you loads of interesting factoids and tidbits you won’t hear anywhere else. He’s also quite funny, so you’ll have a jolly good time!

Fantastic Walking Tour with Rich – A London Highlight! - As someone visiting London for the first time from Montenegro, I couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Rich! His enthusiasm made exploring the city's most iconic royal landmarks an absolute delight. From Buckingham Palace to Westminster, Rich expertly guided us through the essential stops, all while sharing fascinating stories that truly made the experience come alive. Rich's passion for London’s history and culture is undeniable, and he made sure everyone felt engaged and informed. It was like stepping into the pages of an English schoolbook, seeing all the royal gems I'd only read about! If you're looking to get the most out of a walking tour in London’s historic center, Rich is the guide to go with. Highly recommend!

A great tour experience for anyone visiting London! - The tour was great! It was well-planned with lots of photo opportunities. It's perfect for solo travelers who would like a proper picture or two instead of a half-cut selfie. Rich was very friendly throughout the tour and I felt engaged. There was also very useful tourist information apart from the tour for all the landmarks, and I loved the thoughtful "TESCO present" at the end! Definitely a budget saver and a chance to eat as the Londoners eat.
